I'm giving this venue 4 stars primarily because I've seen 3 bands that I love play here and each…read moretime was a tremendous amount of fun. And you're thinking: of course it was fun- it's a rock-pop concert, but I've also lived in LA where it's often not about having fun, nor is it about the music, but about networking and looking cool. I like that the venue is smallish (approx 800 capacity). I'm on the short side (164 cm) and I normally have a hard time seeing what's going on in large crowds, but, that's not been the case here. It is general admission and there seem to be plenty of elevated areas on the ground floor (and they have a second, from what I've read), on the sides and towards the back and on the stairs. Maybe the acoustics are not the best but the energy that the bands receive from possibly the best, most fun-loving crowds in the world creates an atmosphere of celebration, and for me, that makes up for all of the imperfections of the venue.

Great relaxed atmosphere. Perfect little place to tuck in for a drink if you just want to chill…read more Warm lighting and free wifi (ask for the password). Bartenders are friendly. Music was really fun too (80's and 90's pop/rock ex: prince, blondie, etc)

Absolutely loved this jazz bar. Such a fun spot to see local Spanish musicians. I went around 11…read morewhen the bar was just opening. My friends and I got drinks and the place was basically empty. The deal was cover plus a beer for 6 euro or cover plus a mixed drink for 9 euro. As the night went on the bar got my crowded and at midnight the live music started. It was an amazing vibe and the crowd was a very interesting and diverse mix. The music was great and they played all different types. I really enjoyed my night. It felt very local but very comfortable. It is a small place so you at every cozy in there with strangers- a great way to meet people!

Ridiculously cool vibe. I absolutely love this little jazz club. The space isn't very large - but…read moreit makes for a cozier atmosphere. I went on a Thursday night and there was a live band playing for hours after 12:30 am. Places don't really get busy until way past midnight in Spain, but once things heat up- you'll have an absolute blast. They were bumpin blues, jazz, funk up until 6am. It seems to be where all the locals go, so it's got to be a winner. I'll be returning once I'm back in Madrid. Live music + free drink with entrance fee ($8) + down to earth people = good time

This is exactly the reason Madrid is a "night city." At first I didn't understand, but with events…read morelike Barco starting at midnight in the middle of the week. I get it. On the particular night I visited, Freshness was performing. It's a jam session, the group plays and sings as if it's improvised. The singer sings random things, random songs, sometimes make up the words, sometimes actual songs they wrote. Once he looked at his two guitarists and sang, "whaaaaaaaaat are you doing????" because they were totally lost. Freshness had a guitarist, bass, drummer, trumpet, keyboard. They play and accompany the singer, and they're very good!! A moment later, somebody from the audience asks, "Hey can I play the next song with you?" and swaps with the guitarist. Later someone swapped with the drummer. We had 2 other different singers as the main singer went to bar to take shots. The keyboard guy is cute, he got a solo and he's amazing. It's thanks to the singer (who's so lovely, I talked to him of course!!!), I find him really cute too and he's full of energy. It's thanks to him I want to take dance classes again! That is one highlight of Barco, but they have tons of other musicians play. Freshness plays every Wednesday. AND OH YES, you meet a LOT of locals here. But also a lot of tourists, because nobody really goes out Wednesday nights. (Back in Toronto, Wednesdays are study days) The bartenders are snobby. It's 5€ for a Mahou beer though. I for one had a lot of fun here, I got a cute guy's number (but we never chatted after hahaha), and the atmosphere is soooooo cool. I arrived at 11:45pm and nobody was there, I asked if there's a show? The show starts at 12:30am, intermission at 2, then starts again at 2:30am. Crazy huh? And these locals have work at 9 the next day! I LOVE THIS!!! You only live once! The bar got a LOT busier at around 1am. By busy, I really mean it! A lot of people!! Almost club-like! Ah, Malasaña you're so cool.

Every other Sunday they have a R&B Soul kind of band. The singer Christine is amazing. I could…read morehave listened to her all night. Its a jam session sort of feel and the band members swap out and all sorts of talents show up to participate. There were rappers, singers, dancers, instrumentalists. And my best friend that I was with got up there and tore the house down. Everyone loved her. It was amazing. There is such a welcoming spirit here. Another singer, Ginger, made sure we were introduced to people. Christina bought us drinks. People danced with me. I couldn't have had a better experience here. The decor is very urban, jazzy, blues-ie, and the crowd was so diverse. Definitely my kind of spot. Made our last night in Madrid a winner.
